Doesn't bootstrap on Cygwin.

I've been building stuff on Cygwin for years without problems, but OIS really doesn't like me!

Cygwin was fully up to date as of 2 days ago, and I have been using automake etc. for other projects for ages.
I need OIS as a dependency for Ogre.
Was this a build system problem only? I never attempted to use this within Cygwin. If you are sitll around and interested (it's been 3 years!) can you attempt to build the repository now that it uses CMake, just to check on the state of things...
If not, I'll do that myself, it's on the todo list, but not really with an high priority...
I gave up on Ogre in the end, so am not really interested any more, sorry. I wouldn't be at all surprised if it worked much better using CMake.
No problem ;-)
I'm going to attempt to build this in cygwin, and will close the issue if everything works-out
for a start, I'm getting errors just in CMake related to the WIN32 macro when running on Cygwin apparently:
CMake Warning at /usr/share/cmake-3.6.2/Modules/Platform/CYGWIN.cmake:15 (message):
CMake no longer defines WIN32 on Cygwin!
(1) If you are just trying to build this project, ignore this warning or
quiet it by setting CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32=0 in your environment or in
the CMake cache. If later configuration or build errors occur then this
project may have been written under the assumption that Cygwin is WIN32.
In that case, set CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32=1 instead.
(2) If you are developing this project, add the line
set(CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32 0) # Remove when CMake >= 2.8.4 is required
at the top of your top-level CMakeLists.txt file or set the minimum
required version of CMake to 2.8.4 or higher. Then teach your project to
build on Cygwin without WIN32.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
/usr/share/cmake-3.6.2/Modules/CMakeSystemSpecificInformation.cmake:36 (include)
CMakeLists.txt:2 (project)
So, here's the current state of this, and what I think about it:
Under cygwin, the current code for Windows, nor Linux will build:
- Linux code will want to include
linux/input.hin the force feedback code. As this is not done via Xorg obviously - Windows needs the DirectX SDK... CMake in Cygwin doesn't seems to be able to deal with that.
What I think about the situation : The Cygwin usecase seems a bit strange to me. I don't thing this is currently worth putting effort unless somebody really wants to use this. And I'm unsure on how to go around touching some of theses OS specific issues in the Cygwin context : Are we on Windows dealing with Windows stuff, or on Unix dealing with Unix stuff?
in the current state, I'm labeling this as "wontfix" and closing the issue.
